Customer Reviews
Great for travel dreamers
This book is a great read for people who like to travel but don't always have time to sit down and read for hours. Going through some of the lists gives me ideas on the next trip and makes me curious to learn more about the places or things listed.
the best gift
I did not see the 2006 copy, so the information was new to me. It was the perfect gift for a couple friends that have a taste for travel and the best.
I was impressed that they listed my favorite beer(Westvleteren)as number one.
Complete Fraud
This book is a complete fraud. I bought the orginal "10 Best of Everything" by the same author in 2006 and liked it, so when I saw the "Second Edition" on Amazon I ordered it thinking that it would have a lot of new material. When I received it, to my horror the Second Edition is identical to the first one except for the fact that the cover is in a different color. Made a complete fool of myself !
